Summary

The Municipal Health Service (GGD) Kennemerland conducted an unannounced annual inspection on January 20, 2026, at after-school care (BSO) Dolletje Fijn in IJmuiden. The location provides care for children aged 4 to 12 with 15 childcare places, of which a maximum of 11 are occupied. All assessed quality requirements regarding pedagogical climate and staff and groups were met. The location has addressed the points for improvement from the previous inspection (July 2024), for which a recovery offer had been issued due to incomplete policy descriptions. The external emergency backup regulation has been updated, and a panic button connected to an alarm center has been formally embedded in policy. Due to open vacancies, shifts are temporarily covered by permanent staff members from the daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV), with attention to familiarity and emotional safety. The pedagogical practice provides sufficient emotional safety, although one child commented on the frequent turnover of childcare professionals. The GGD advises no enforcement action.
